Tiani watched as the original angel-winged elf took off with his grandson before she turned back to Wyrd. "I'm going with you. Everyone would kill me if I let anything happen to Zen, and don't say no because I'm not lsitening. I choose to do this, Escalvone has all the help it can use."

Tyrsis stepped forward as well, alone as she walked the few steps towards Damuthca, a dust covered traveler with a small band of people following her. As she approached, she pulled the sword loose, still wrapped in the cloth she had guarded it with since Damuthca's death. His eyes sought hers, and she returned the look levelly. Fear didn't touch gold, only a sense of sorrow. An apology to somthing far beyond Damuthca and the Escalvone.
At his words, her breath caught, if only for a moment. Forgiveness was not expected, in all truth she had come with the knowledge that she would die. The sword dipped in her hands and she dropped to a knee, presenting it before him as she bowed her head slightly.
"The Sword of the High Dragon, returned to you Lord Damuthca Escalvone. You are named regent of Hogoromo until the return of Queen Zenra Dan'Shir. I will serve you until that time."
She didn't know if she was ready for forgiveness, or ever would be. Her chin raised as she tilted her head back to look at him, dark brown curls trailing down her back reminding her of the bed of morning glory she ahd woken in one morning. The morning that she ahd decided there would always be another day, that death was never the better answer.
"Thank you, Lord Damuthca." Her words were soft, for him alone. Until he accepted, they still met one leader to another.
